Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu in Viladecans: Technique Over Strength
Learn BJJ with professional Team Calderón instructors at Ryutai II. The martial art where technique defeats strength. Progression from white to black belt in Viladecans, Baix Llobregat.
What is Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu?
Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ) is a Brazilian martial art focused on ground combat and submission techniques. Unlike other disciplines, BJJ demonstrates how a smaller person can effectively defend against a larger opponent using technique, leverage and strategic positioning. It's known as the 'physical chess' of martial arts.
Developed by the Gracie family in Brazil based on Japanese Judo, BJJ revolutionized martial arts by demonstrating the supremacy of technique over brute strength. The belt system (white, blue, purple, brown, black) marks a clear progression where each student develops their skills gradually, always emphasizing control and efficiency over physical power.
At Ryutai Viladecans we teach authentic BJJ under Team Calderón's direction, with experienced black belt instructors. Since 2016, we've been training practitioners at Ryutai II with professional methodology, preparing both beginners seeking effective self-defense and competitors aspiring to the highest technical level in Baix Llobregat.
